Hotels There is a cheap hotel we use regularly in Beeston, which is the town nearest to the campus. There are shops, restaurants, the highly recommended Victoria Hotel pub and Beeston railway station nearby. The maths building is a 30 minute walk.

To take a taxi find the taxi booking desk next to arrivals (desk takes plastic money, or driver takes cash).

The easiest way to get to the university is to use the hourly Rainbow 5 bus service which stops at Beeston Bus station, University West Gate and University South Gate. There is also an airport shuttle bus every 30 minutes to Nottingham city centre.

This is larger than EMA and offers a large range of cheap connecting flights using regular airlines. There are also a few long-haul flights, notably the Continental Airlines service from Newark (recommended for its convenience). There is a free 2-minute monorail from the airport to Birmingham International rail station.
